A playground called Miracle: The Parkersburg, Iowa May 25, 2008 tornado destroyed the swimming pool park playground. Two weeks later, two local citizens started a Rebuild the Playground Park Committee and began the process of soliciting funds from businesses and the private sector along with having the entire rebuild done by volunteers and adding a second park on the east side of town. Dedication of the new Miracle playground park will be on May 24. 2009.
